Vampr - Find & Meet Musicians 12+

Great product

Would rate 5 stars but only giving 4 due to the features blocked behind paywalls. Completely understandable, but I feel some of them are aimed to attempt to force users to buy their service.

Location, location, location 😅

Great app’ - very handy for finding musicians. I love meeting new musicians, so it meets my needs well in that regard.

I notice that the distance options are up to 200 miles, then global. For me, this is a bit limiting. This year, I’m travelling ‘round Australia, and I want to link up in advance to play gigs with local session musicians around the country. With the current (July 2019) version of the app’ I’m limited to 200 miles from wherever I happen to be at the moment (and Australia is a very big country) or global.

I suggest it would be great to add some sort of ‘select nation’ (and possibly even a sub section ‘select state/county/whatever’) option in the distance options, for people for whom that’s useful.

As a touring musician, my current location isn’t necessarily the best indicator of where I’m based (e.g. tonight I’m in Yannarie - where?) for people who might be looking for a longer-term regionally based connection, so it might be useful to create an option to choose a base location too?

Thanks for the initiative, time and effort you’ve put into making an excellent app’. I look forward to using it for a long time, and making some fantastic musical connections :-)

Developer Response ,

Thanks for taking the time to send through some really considered feedback. As you probably found whilst thinking through these feature requests, choosing how we might implement them is not only complex but there's usually about twenty different ways we could 'skin the cat'. Rest assured a lot of this stuff is on the table for the next version of Vampr - which you can preview now at www.wefunder.com/vampr

Great idea, needs improvement

I’ve been using this app for a few hours, and made a few matches.
I found that everything EXCEPT the chat function (in my opinion probably the most important feature) works perfectly.
I found it is slow to and sometimes never loads responses from other musicians.
Please fix this :(

Developer Response ,

We are working on it daily - I feel your frustration and totally agree it's most important function, however it is improving all the time :) Josh
